In plant engineering companies, many engineers are involved in cost-related tasks such as estimation, evaluation, and cost reduction. In practice, there is a constant demand for quick responses and cost reduction through the computerization or simplification of estimation tasks. The equipment for plant fabrication targeted in this document consists of specially designed items that are created for each instance. Understanding the composition of these costs can be challenging for those not in the manufacturing position, but the monetary weight is significant, and there is a need to enhance cost evaluation capabilities. This document is created primarily based on examples of a detailed estimation method, known as the bottom-up estimation, and the construction of an estimation system for fabricated equipment to assist in such cases. The examples of the estimation system construction in this document include three types related to wastewater treatment plants: "rapid filtration machine," "circular central suspended sludge scraper," and "dewatered cake storage hopper," but the concepts should also be applicable to other types. I hope this serves as an example for the development of estimation systems.

It is often considered very difficult for users of equipment to conduct rough cost estimates themselves, as they typically have limited cost data at hand. However, in today's highly competitive globalized era, it is expected that related engineers will improve their cost estimation skills. This document aims to assist in enhancing the capabilities of engineers in this era by providing fundamental knowledge about rough cost estimation for chemical plants, basic estimation methods, and practical estimation examples. It is hoped that this will serve as a starting point for readers to improve their estimation skills and cost engineering abilities.

The title of this book is "The Reality of Cost Estimation," which is straightforward, but the content explains how the author has approached the "cost estimation of bidding projects based on construction contracts for chemical plants and similar facilities" over many years, incorporating related matters such as design, procurement, and construction from the contractor's perspective. In actual cost estimation, the contractor selects estimation methods tailored to the situation for each cost component, taking into account the client's "request for quotation/specifications" and the contractor's "experience." This book provides explanations based on the author's practical experience in typical cases.
